However, the movie studios is a lot more adventurous nowadays in terms of presenting its young viewers with challenging content, such as in the Sleeping Beauty retake, _Maleficent,_ meaning we could see such famous scenes as the ugly stepsisters cutting off their toes to fit the glass slipper then getting their eyes pecked out by doves as punishment for their abuse of their stepsister.
Disney's Cinderella will be released in April 2015.
